Clarksville Road - Kerr Rudge (Sony Music Publishing All Access)

Описание: Here's my original song "Clarksville Road"

Lyrics:
I’m a thousand miles from mama’s house
Three months on from moving out
And pointing my compass south
To Nashville, Tennessee

Thought I’d turn a brand new page
Bright lights on a barroom stage
And all my demons
They’d not follow me

But there ain’t no car too small for my baggage

If I make it to twenty-two
I hope that there’s some better news
Than a discount at that ‘Wines & Liquors’
Up on Clarksville Road

If I ever find a heart to keep
Start wearing mine on my sleeve
Maybe I’ll quit needing booze to cope
‘Cause I’m running out of road

My innocence is fading fast
The good things hardly ever last
The devil says an empty glass
Will burn the blues away

But I don’t need it
Nah, it’s just a habit

Repeat Chorus

I’ve tried skipping town
Swapping states
Tried last calls
Tried first dates

All I’ve found is an empty bed
Beating heart
And a pounding head

But I’m just on this ship
I ain’t the captain

So if I make it to twenty-two
I hope that there’s some better news
Than a discount at that ‘Wines & Liquors’
Up on Clarksville Road

If I ever find a heart to keep
Start wearing mine on my sleeve
Maybe I’ll quit needing booze, and dip, and smoke to cope
‘Cause I’m running out of road
